"They knew full well the deficiencies of the spirit, whether [sc. those of] an individual who might be given to drunkenness and inebriation or a pleasure-seeker with his brain in his genitals".
Greek original · Adler’s text
Κραιπαλώδης· τῆς ψυχῆς τὰ ἐλαττώματα κατηπίσταντο, εἴτε κραιπαλώδης τις εἴη καὶ μέθυσος εἴτε φιλήδονος καὶ ἐν τοῖς αἰδοίοις ἔχων τὸν ἐγκέφαλον.
